    I believe the toughest losses for us has been ...

    Benitez - Leonard in 79
    Trinidad - Hopkins
    Cotto - Margarita
    Cotto - Pacquiao

    Is there any that comes to mind that bothered you as much as these ?

    The Trinidad-Hopkins fight had to be the toughest. Hopkins punked Tito before the fight, and then took him apart during the fight.

    Hopkins-Tito had to be the worst. Just because the way Hopkins acted before the fight.

    What Bernard did to Trinidad is surely the worst?

    That definitely was a tough one to get over.....

    I was thinking about when Chapo Rosario got his ass handed to him by Chavez as well.

    He had the fight won before it happened just from the psychological warfare. Wow, Bernard and his crew running from all those angry Puerto Ricans was funny as hell.

    He also offered Trinidad his "final meal."

    "Everyone is entilted to a final meal. Rice or beans!"

    Bernard did personally deliver Trinidad's belts to him after the fight was over. :yep
